Which is cheaper in the long run? Am wondering what exactly is the benefit of having a student credit card over a regular one?

click interest rate is 8.5% and you have to be reg for p&i banking to get it cause all stmts are sent through e-stmts and you can only apply online and you need to be earning over 23,000e(I think its between 20-25k anyway) to get the card in the first place.

Student Card interest is 3.9% for the first 12 months and then 15.8% after that and for obv reasons you can only be a student to get it.Max liit aswell 1,000e.

I would def suggest getting the click card by far the best option long term.
